Misleading advertisement.

There was no kitchette, no one informed us how to use the goofy remote for the climate control. It is not good to be uncomfortably hot or cold. That so called house, has the smallest refrigerator I have ever seen.

Excellent accommodations and great area to visit.

Very pleasant place to stay. Local restaurants were also exceptionally good. Very scenic town. Newaygo State Park and Manistee National Forest were a lot of fun to explore.

Amazing property

This was an amazing place to stay. It was inviting from the moment I walked in. The aroma, the cleanliness, the decor even the little touches were perfect. The Retreat was so cozy and relaxing. It was very private even for being right in the middle of town and close to everything. Jamie is an amazing hostess with great communication to her guests. She has little touches and extras through out her rental. I stayed 5 days and even worked from there. No issues at all, it has strong wifi. I definitely recommend this place and hope to be a returning guest!
